Straightforward, cautious, and pleasurable - this is a prequel-sequel that fills the stomach with candy that threatens very few intestinal side effects.

Even though Westwood hasn't blazed much technological ground with Red Alert 2, it does succeed in being their most enjoyable real-time strategy game yet.

Westwood must have felt that the RA engine didn't need improving - add 7% if you agree. [Jan 2001, p.118]

i had a lot of fun playing as the soviet army. though sometimes the enemies are incredibly difficult to counter, especially when they attack you early, i had to keep saving and restarting every time that happened. overall, pretty fun

Looking back, this was objectively not a "good" strategy game in terms of game balance, but the atmosphere, the music (by Frank Klepacki) and the art style were insanely cool for the time this was released.

The game's plot-twisting story, addictive game play and bevy of single- and multiplayer options makes this an excellent addition to your CD-ROM collection.

OK, so it's not a quantum leap forward in gaming, but so what? It's a heck of a lot of fun from the company that defined RTS.

I fell in love with the RTS genre because of this. The campaign is engaging, with memorable missions and hilarious FMV cutscenes that add to its charm. Skirmishes are addictive, offering endless replayability. While the graphics are dated, the gameplay remains timeless. For me, it’s the perfect mix of strategy and nostalgia. 10/10

Not only one of the best games that Westwood has ever created, but is easily one of the most entertaining, visceral, and tactically focused RTS products ever seen, and will likely be remembered as a true classic for years to come.

Solid and extremely stylish (if unrevolutionary) RTS gaming.

While not totally original, it's got enough intensity and excitement to have even the most jaded real-time strategy gamer glued to his computer for hours. Death to the American dogs, comrade.

Red Alert 2 proves to be one of the finest offerings in the C&C series.

Red Alert 2 can be both fascinating and bewildering, neither of which amounts to much when you are launching a tank rush in multiplayer games.

Perfect RTS. With great soundtrack and great campaign for both sides of the conflict.

This game is awful and I love C&C games. I love Tiberian Sun, I loved Tiberium Wars, all be it not as much as Tiberian Sun. Red Alert 2, feels like a dumbed down version of these games. To me its just tank wars for multiplayer, and the single player bored me to death. 0 Would not buy.
SummaryWielding strange new technologies and hungering for revenge, the Soviet Empire invades America. New York City and Washington are overwhelmed. Allied forces, unprepared for the surprise attack, are decimated. Will freedom be crushed under the heels of Communist aggression? [Electronic Arts]
